~BostonBill~'s photostream
|
I was not born with a camera in my hand. That, my dear flickr friends, is your first and final warning. ;)
My name is Bill and I am not from Boston. Aside from that, everything that you have heard is true. Thanks so much for stopping by my stream. Be careful now, those rocks are slippery!


Sometimes flickr, and the talented people who post here, make me feel like this:
"It was one of those days when it's a minute away from snowing and there's this electricity in the air, you can almost hear it. And this bag was, like, dancing with me. Like a little kid begging me to play with it. For fifteen minutes. And that's the day I knew there was this entire life behind things, and... this incredibly benevolent force, that wanted me to know there was no reason to be afraid, ever. Video's [photos are] a poor excuse, I know. But it helps me remember... and I need to remember... Sometimes there's so much beauty in the world I feel like I can't take it, like my heart's going to cave in."
-From the film American Beauty (1999)
Damn you all!

"~BostonBill~, this is long overdue.
His stream- eyegifts of the fantasically ordinary made wonderful by his angles, control, of light, and thought. There's not a wasted picture here and each one has their own story flexible enough to find yourself in it..."2nd October, 2008
